To be honest, I made a ‘best of’ list for 2012 – but I didn’t release it (clearly). The reason being that I have to compete with all of these blogs, and then some. It’s daunting, and it’s frustrating, but it’s also the reality of running a music blog in today’s culture. In the end, there is nothing I could have said that hadn’t already been said by another blog. And so I said nothing at all (for almost 3 months).

I now extend an olive branch.

This post contains everything of importance that has me excited for 2013 – as a sort of apology/consolation prize for the lack of content you have been receiving on this blog as of late.

Never posted about these guys, but they were easily the best album of 2012… If you haven’t already heard of them, I envy your ignorance.
